A new set of Docker tools
Docker has announced
a new set of container management tools: Machine (for system provisioning),
Swarm (native clustering for Dockerized applications), and
Compose (assembly of multi-container applications). "Finally, Docker
Swarm has a pluggable architecture and ships 'batteries included' with a
default scheduler. Stay tuned for the public API in the first half of 2015
which will allow swapping-in a scheduler implemented by an ecosystem
partner or even your own custom implementation. Nevertheless, regardless
of the underlying scheduler implementation, the interface to the app
remains consistent, meaning that the app remains 100% portable."
